ディープ・ソウルの代表格として、思いつくのは誰でしょう?
オーティス・レディングか、ウィルスン・ピケットか、ジョー・テックスか。
もっと詳しければ、ガーネット・ミムズという名前を挙げる人もいるかも。
O.V.ライト? ジェイムズ・カー? 
ですが、やはりこのソロモン・バークを抜いて考えてはなりません。

途中でゴスペルの世界へ行ったり、再びソウルの世界へと帰ってきたりしていますが、
その現在まで続く彼の足跡の中で、彼の存在を知らしめ、一般的にも最も知られているのは、
アトランティック・レーベルに在籍していた時期(1961-1968年)でありましょう。
このCDは、アトランティック時代のソロモン・バークの代表曲が16曲収録されており、
彼の音楽に触れる上で大変ありがたい1枚となっております。

別に、名前が有名だからとか、基本的な教養として聴いておかなければ、という学習意識からではなくて、
こういうものこそ、現在の耳で、現在の感性に即して、聴いていただきたいものです。

音楽の形式的に見れば、それは古臭いのでしょうが、
実に、聴き手の感情を強く揺さぶる世界が、そこにはあります。
そういうものは、いつまでも、世間がどうあっても、価値を持ち続けるものです。
そういうものを知りたければ、これを聴いて、絶対に損はしません。

ローリング・ストーンズのカヴァー“Everybody Needs Somebody To Love”は名演である。その原曲が聴きたくて、ソロモン・バークの数ある編集盤のうち本作をだいぶ前に購入した。選んだ理由はジャケットが気に入ったことである。なお、本作はアトランティック・レコード時代の16曲入り(1961年〜1968年)だが、2枚組41曲入りの“Home In Your Heart”という編集盤もある。

輸入盤には4ページのライナー・ノーツがあるが、基本的な情報を押さえていない。16曲中6曲は、ソロモンの自作か共作。ドン・コヴェイの関わっている曲が4曲。本作はライノが忠実にオリジナル(つまり再演でもリミックスでもない)のモノ・レコーディングを集めたもの。

ソロモン・バークは、1940年にペンシルヴァニア州フィラデルフィアで生まれている。少年時代はゴスペルを歌っていた。最初のレコーディングはアポロ・レーベルで1955年に行っている。1960年にアトランティック・レコードと契約した。最初のヒット曲は“Just Out Of Reach”(1961年)。“Got to Get You Off My Mind”(1965年)が、ビルボードHot100では最大のヒット曲(22位)。レイ・チャールズらと共に、ソウルの功労者のうちの1人である。

ソロモンは、スウェーデンで公演旅行中に死去した(2010年)。

This Rhino product follows in the tradition of many, many, many, many Rhino reissues. As Bill Inglot (Sound Producer) emphatically explains on the back cover of the insert booklet, to present the very best of Solomon Burke's early recorded output required shunning all other LPs and Greatest Hits product which was "adulterated" (my term) by remixing, remastering, re-editing, overdubbing, or just all-out re-recording. These recordings are from the original mono singles masters just as they were originally broadcast by AM radio in the early 60s.

The latest recording contained in this 16 selection set is June 1968. FM radio broadcasting (with stereo multiplexing) was just taking off, so the great shift from mono (some in "hi-fi") to (in some cases "living") stereophonic sound was still nascent, but it would unduly relegate "old-fashioned" mono masters to the relic pile, even if the shock of the new was inferior sound to the authentic recording. [N.B., Yes, I do own most of the individual Beatles LP remasters in stereo and the Beatles Remastered Mono Box. Each of those discs should be judged individually, as there are few "clear" winners for mono vs. stereo options.]

So Rhino & Bill Inglot firmly come down in the "Back to Mono" camp, at least in this instance. I concur, at least in this instance. So what about the music? The first selection ("Just Out of Reach") comes straight out of the champ's corner punching you with vocal inflections reminiscent of Elvis Presley, George Jones, Jackie Wilson, and future STAX superstar Otis Redding. He may not sound like a delta bluesman, but Solomon Burke is no stranger to the rawest blues. That Solomon Burke could aurally evoke Presley and The Possum simultaneously, while being true to his own voice is beyond art. It is talent to burn, which he confirms on each number that follows.

This first number grabbed me and I was immediately transported to my youth, wherein I would cram a tiny, tinny earpiece into my ear, while scanning the AM dial on MY first portable radio. My hometown station was WFKY (Frankfort, KY), but it was too parochial to fulfill my insatiable need for "today's" music. So it was a nightly ritual to seek out WAKY & WHAS (Louisville), WLW (Cincinnati), WLS (Chicago), WSM (Nashville), WLAC (Nashville), WWL (New Orleans), and the DJs who would play the music I wanted, even though I did not know that music even existed.

Yes, Cousin Brucie, Ron Britton, Murray the K, John Richbourg, Murf the Surf, Ernest Tubb, and others introduced me to Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley, Little Richard, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, The Who, The Beach Boys, The Animals, Esther Phillips, Lonnie Mack, Slim Harpo, Jimmy Reed, Hank Snow, Travis Wammack, Arthur Alexander, Billy Lee Riley, Howling Wolf, Booker T and the MGs, The Temptations, Johnny Cash, Etta James, Flatt and Scruggs, Mongosantamaria, Little Stevie Wonder, Paul Butterfield, John Barry ("Goldfinger!!!!") while sandwiching in Music for Parental Units. AM could be (and was) stifling, yet it could be (and was) the entry point to "popular" music.

This very best of recording of Solomon Burke (singer) reminded me of the days when music of divergent genres, from around the globe and next door, was the craving that could never really be satisfied. It was the anticipation of what was going to follow whatever you were hearing at that very moment that was almost unbearable. While a best of one artist is not quite the smorgasbord of sounds that AM was, this particular offering is a stellar trip through the first seven years of Burke's very long career and very under-appreciated talent.

If any of this strikes you as familiar, or intriguing, then this is a disc for you. The sound is prime, the songs are engaging, the singer is a master, and the entire vibe is retro/timeless. So, jump into the DeLorean and set the WayBack machine's controls for 1961, then prepare to be blown away by the best sounding AM soul station you
never heard.

5つ星のうち5.0 Why Solomon is the Uncrowned Emperor of Soul!
2003年2月17日に英国でレビュー済み

As a "child of the sixties" I was slightly aware of Solomon Burke via two early Rolling Stone covers and a hideous version of Dylan's Maggie's Farm (regularly voted one of the worst Dylan covers ever made I understand and thankfully not on this collection!).
As a Mojo magazine reader I was aware that his latest CD "Don't give up on me" was Mojo's Album of the Year in 2002, so when I saw he was coming to London to appear at the Mojo Festival at the RFH in January I took a chance.
Suffice to say the show was so great (closest to a 60s Soul Review since I saw Ike & Tina Turner Revue in the early 1970s)that I wanted to rehear many of the early songs he performed that night in their original form and so immediately bought this Rhino re-issue via Amazon.
To get to the key review point, this has been one of the most pleasurable reissues I have come across in years and has been played incessantly since receipt. This is due firstly to Rhino Records which has done it's usual masterful job courtesy of Bill Inglot (apparently most of the original 45s that were the hits were remixed or re-recorded for LP and later CD release so this CD does truly represent the original 45 hits unheard for so long from the master tapes and boy does it show in the clarity both emotional and auditory).
But the real pleasure is that Burke who did not enjoy great success in the UK (one suspects lack of touring exposure in mid-60s plus he was ahead on most of the others (Redding, Picket etc.)in age and early hits) was (and still is based on the above recent evidence I can assure you!) a great all time soul voice and song interpreter who can coax a lyric so that it becomes truly etched on your memory cells in that you keep going back to listen to it again. The two other singers I find myself comparing him with in my mind are Arthur Alexander and James Carr who had a similar gift and who have all similarly benefited belatedly in both cases from recent re-issues. Some of the early 60s tracks sound slightly Ray Charles influenced (around the time of his C&W LPs) but Burke has a much richer vocal timbre and to these ears is throughout able to underscore it with his unique religious and spiritual vein (the inner notes fully cover this unique side of his life) so that you do understand why he is called the "Emperor of Soul" by many.
Burke was also well served by his Atlantic Producers, notably Bert Berns and Jerry Wexler who together produced the first 12 cuts of the 16 on the CD(Wexler produced one other on his own) though if the inner notes are to be believed Burke was his own man when it came to how a song was going to be paced and interpreted, in his rendering of it.
Only bummer is that the sleeve notes refer to Burke's full coverage of the history to all the 16 songs when interviewed by the Head of Rhino, but not all make it to the sleeve though the stories that did are well worth it.
